Hi, I've just started comping again recently, and was wondering if anyone could tell me who sells the cheapest postcards? The shop I used to get mine from when I used to comp years ago is no longer there, and today I paid 39p for 12 from Wilkinsons. 12 wont last me 5 minutes! Any ideas? I've seen suggestions to get them from the cinema, but I don't go often enough.

Is it just me or is there a problem with "thanks" Whenever I press it, it just doesn't work. I thought it was a blip but I can't thank on any posts, now I know I've not been around for ages so there might be something I've missed?

I bought a load from Ebay a while ago, they printed your name and addy on so all you needed to do was fill in your answer. Got about 100 I think and they weren't all that expensive I think they're by someone called winnersbydesign hth

Seems to work fine for me

The thanks button is sometimes a bit slow to disappear when you press it, Sam

samf1971

It still doesn't like me , I've tried to thank you both and when I click on the thanks button, it moves me up further up the screen but when I look at your message, it hasn't thanked you - wierd

hjb123

what internet browser are you using? I always use IE and have no problems but at one stage I trieed using another, think it was Opera and had probelms with the thanks button with it

How do I do that "clicky" thing? Help please! And then do I copy and paste the body of the text of the comp. underneath? Then under all that; the answer!

hjb123

The clicky thing:

write CLICK HERE (or whatever text you want!)
highlight it
click on the icon above the text box that looks like a globe with a paperclip
put in the web address that you want to link to
click ok
hey presto you done it!


and to copy and paste the text of the comp:

highlight the text of the comp you want to copy/paste then

either:

right click and click copy, then go to where you want to put it and right click and click paste

or

press the ctrl and c buttons on your keyboard, then go to where you want to put it and press the ctrl and v buttons on your keyboard
